Power Supply from Mindfactory

Affluenza

Hi guys,

I have a quick question if anyone can answer regarding this power supply:
http://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/530-Watt-be-quiet--Pure-Power-L8-CM-Modular-80--Bronze_757838.html

Does it comes with a UK wall plug or will I have to go out and buy one?

Thanks for the help

Comes with an EU one. You'll have to buy a UK one or get an adapter

Hi Digital Solitude,
thanks for the confirmation. This one from UK should be ok then?

Or should I buy the one linked and get this:

I'd go Amazon for simplicity there. The one you linked is fixed cables, to confirm

My current PSU came with an EU plug as well. I just bought an adapter from PC World and it's been working grand for almost 5 years now. Drop by your local PC World/Currys, they should have one. It only cost me about a fiver iirc.

I ordered a new build off MindFactory which is due to arrive later today/tomorrow and it should come with an EU plug as well. But I have a spare kettle lead with a UK plug which I plan to use so I don't need to buy an adapter this time. Maybe have a look around your house and see if you have a spare one lying around.

Its always possible to just re-terminate an EU lead too, just make sure you do it correctly. UK plugs are cheap as chips (£1 each on Amazon).

Perfect James Thanks for that. I ended up going for the one on Mindfactory. I will be sure to get to PCworld in the coming days. My order is supposed to be here by Monday. I don't have to worry about wattages or anything yeah? Sorry I know absolutely nothing about electricity lol.

Hi, I havent heard the best things from that non modular PSU and the freedom of a semi modular PSU tempted me too much Thanks for your help

Looks like this








A bit blurry there on the 2nd pic, but think it has a 13AMP fuse

Xenoronin

Looks more like 3AMP to me

Nah it's 13AMP, the 1 is just a bit blurred out
